It was the end of an era - the final regular-season game
at old Busch Stadium! As Jason Isringhausen delivered the third strike
to close out a 7-5 win over the Cincinnati Reds...SNAP! The historic final
pitch is captured for all-time, and is now available for your wall. With
picture-perfect clarity, The Rob Arra Collection presents the historic
end of regular-season action at "Round" Busch Stadium. As with all prints
in Arra's vast collection of panoramic sporting stadium prints, every detail
is in perfect focus, and as you pan across the wide-angle panoramic image,
you feel like you are there, under the high midwestern fall sky, on a legendary
day at the ballpark. From the finely groomed field, to the standing-room-only
red-clad crowd on its feet, to the scoreboards and billboards, to half
of the 96 arches crowning the stadium - and the one arch that really matters
towering above the right-field bleachers, it's all here, in brilliant color
and crystal-clear clarity. And, as a bonus, the white outer border contains
authentic facsimilie autographs of no less than 16 of the players on the
roster that day, plus a signature from none other than the greatest shortstop
of all-time, Ozzie Smith ("HOF 02")! Other autographs are: John Mabry,
Brad Thompson, Matt Morris, Reggie Sanders, Al Reyes, So Taguchi, Ray King,
Jim Edmonds, Albert Pujols, Jason Isringhausen, Abraham Nunez, Hector Luna,
Mark Grudzielanek, Yadier Molina, Larry Walker, and Randy Flores. Whether
you were at the game that day to witness history, are a long-time Cardinals
fan who grew up watching baseball at Busch, or are simply a fan of ballparks
and baseball history, this remarkable print is for you! A must-have collector's
item for the wall of any fan, perfect for a nice frame and a prominent
place on the wall of home or office. A limited-edition release, this one
won't be available forever...grab yours now while you can!
